Playbook not able to SSH to the hosts

[janani Shri]

I see this error when running playbook against my hosts, please assist

Failed to connect to the host via ssh: ssh: Could not resolve hostname hostname.acx: Name or service not known

[Wei-Yen Tan]

Is the server name resolvable? Can the computer ansible see the server?

First step is to check  if it is connecting without Ansible from your server

You can also use verbose when running the playbook. ( -vvv )
It may help you pinpoint the issue.

I suspect Its either a resolution problem as pointed by rajthecomputerguy or an inventory problem.
